Answer:
-36/7 or -5.14287
Step-by-step explanation:
so I would get rid of parentheses you do not need them
=
(because when two negative come before two numbers like -x-y they are being added but negative is present to the result of the sum, when one negative sign comes after a number and the other negative sign comes before a number, like x--y they are being added as well but negative is not present to the result of the sum)
-36/7=-5.1428
hope this helps!
Answer:
There is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the technique performs differently than the traditional method.
Step-by-step explanation:
The null hypothesis is:
The alternate hypotesis is:
The test statistic is:
In which X is the sample mean, is the value tested at the null hypothesis,
is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.
A researcher used the technique with 260 students and observed that they had a mean of 94 hours. Assume the standard deviation is known to be 6.
This means, respectively, that
The test-statistic is:
The pvalue is:
2(P(Z < -2.69))
P(Z < -2.69) is the pvalue of Z when X = -2.69, which looking at the z-table, is 0.0036
2*(0.0036) = 0.0072
0.0072 < 0.01, which means that the null hypothesis is accepted, that is, there is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the technique performs differently than the traditional method.
